#+TITLE: Cetus

Cetus is a simple wallpaper management tool written in Go. It supports multiple
sources for fetching the background.

| Project Home  | [[https://andinus.nand.sh/projects/cetus/][Cetus]]           |
| Source Code   | [[https://framagit.org/andinus/cetus][Andinus / Cetus]] |
| GitHub Mirror | [[https://github.com/andinus/cetus][Cetus - GitHub]]  |

*Note*: Cetus is a work in-progress & many features are yet to be implemented.
This whole project was changed multiple times, previous versions have had
support for services like Unsplash Source & Wallhaven. I'm working on this
because I want my desktop to have a new wallpaper everyday.

Cetus v0.5 will support NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day & Bing Photo of the
Day, I may add support for other services later. Both sources are very easy to
work with, I personally like NASA APOD & fallback to BPOD only when it's not an
image (somtimes they choose a video for APOD).

Currently the only dependency is [[https://feh.finalrewind.org/][feh]], it is used to set the background. It
doesn't support some desktop environments but should work fine many others. I
plan to add support for unsupported DEs too provided they're not hard to
implement.

Also the code is not so good, I couldn't think of a good way to structure it. If
you have a better idea then please let me know.

* Demo
I just run some cetus commands on my computer, nothing fancy. I'll make better
demo videos someday.

* Examples
To learn about all supported flags run "cetus <command> <service> -help"
(example: cetus set apod -help)

** cetus set
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
# set current apod as background
cetus set apod
cetus set nasa # same as above

# set current bpod as background
cetus set bpod
cetus set bing # same as above

# Currently all services support -random flag (v0.5.0) but this
# behaviour might change in future, run cetus set <service> -help to
# know about support flags.

# set random image as background
cetus set <service> -random
#+END_SRC
** cetus fetch
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
cetus fetch <service>
#+END_SRC
